clearly mentioned by the competent authority issuing the disability
certificate. If the candidature of a candidate is cancelled by the User
Organization/Offices for non-furnishing of the requisite certificate in support of the
category filled up in the application form, the candidate would be solely responsible
for furnishing false information in the application form and the Commission would not
be held responsible in this regard. Further it should be noted that any grievance
received in this regard in any form like Post, Fax, Email, by hand, etc. shall not be
entertained by the Commission and will be summarily rejected.

16 Document Verification (DV): In view of the decision of the

C

Government to expedite the recruitment process, Document

Verification (DV) will be conducted by the User
Organizations/Offices after declaration of the final result.
16.1 Staff Selection Commission recruits personnel as per the vacancies
reported by the User Departments/Organizations. The Commission has no
role in determination of total vacancies (Vertical & Horizontal) arising in a
User Department/Organization, backlog vacancies, segregation of
vacancies under various reserved categories and vacancies reported to be
filled up by direct recruitment. After declaration of final result of the
examination, dossiers of selected candidates are forwarded to the User
Departments/Organizations. The User Departments/Organizations shall
accept the dossiers forwarded after declaration of final result. No User
Department/Organization shall return the dossier(s) of selected
candidates on the ground of non-availability of Horizontal vacancies or on
the ground that a Horizontal vacancy exists but the dossier of that
category has not been provided by the Commission.
16.2 Staff Selection Commission confirms the vacancies from User
Departments/Organizations before declaration of the final result. Final
result is declared and nominations/recommendations are made only
against such confirmed vacancies. The User Departments/Organizations
will, therefore, accept the nominations made and dossiers sent to them. In
case a Department/Organization is wound up, reorganized, or transferred
under the administrative control of another Department/Ministry/
Organization, its successor/administrative Department/Ministry will
25
 accept the dossiers. In case, the entire hierarchy of organizations upto the
Ministry level is wound up, the Ministry/Department to which its work
has been transferred would accept the dossiers. In the event that work of
the Organization/Department has not been transferred to any other
Department/Ministry, the Department/Ministry whose work is closely
related to the erstwhile work of the former will accept the dossiers.
Decision of the Commission in this regard would be final.
16.3 The final result will be declared only once by the Commission and no
further nomination of candidates would be made in the event of
candidates not joining the offered posts. Thus, after the declaration of final
result, vacancy(ies), if any, remaining unfilled due to non-availability of
suitable candidates, non-joining of candidates or any other reason(s) will
not be filled up in that recruitment year and the Indenting
Ministry/Department/Organization may carry forward those vacancies to
the next recruitment cycle and report to the Commission as per the extant
rules.
16.4 As per policy of the Commission, SSC does not maintain waiting
list/reserve panel for multi-factor examinations conducted by the

final result. A candidate will not be considered for a Post and Organization/Office, if he
tio
nc

Ju

and will not be changed subsequently under any circumstances. Therefore, candidates

iv
C

17.2 The option/preference once exercised by the candidates will be treated as

FINAL and IRREVERSIBLE. Subsequent request for change of
Post/Department by candidates shall not be entertained under any
circumstances. If the candidate has not opted for a Post/Department,
he/she shall not be considered for selection to such post irrespective of
his/her merit position. Therefore candidates must exercise due diligence
and be very careful while giving their post-preferences.
17.3 Candidates, who do not submit their post preference(s) on the website of
the Commission within the stipulated time, will not be considered for any
post in the Final Result. Such candidates shall not be provided with another
opportunity to exercise preference for posts and will be solely responsible
for the same. Any grievance received in this regard in any form like Post,
Fax, Email, by hand, etc. shall not be entertained by the Commission and will
be summarily rejected.

17.4 Posts of Junior Engineers in BRO have stringent requirements of physical

and medical standards including Physical Efficiency Test (Details available
at Schedule). Examination of such physical and medical standards will be
conducted after the final selection of candidates by BRO. If a candidate fails
in such tests, his candidature will not be subsequently considered for any
other post/department. Candidates are therefore advised to go through
thoroughly these requirements and submit their considered preference of
posts.

27
18 Mode of Selection:

18.1 Minimum qualifying marks in Paper-I and Paper-II are as follows:

(i) UR : 30%
(ii) OBC/EWS : 25%
(iii) All other categories : 20%
18.2 Based on the normalized marks scored in the (Paper-I) i.e. Computer
Based Examination, candidates will be shortlisted, category-wise, to
appear in Paper-II. The Commission shall have the discretion to normalize
the marks of Paper-II, if Paper-II is conducted in multiple shifts and fix
different cut-off marks in each part of Paper-I and also in Paper-II taking
into consideration among others, category-wise vacancies and category-
wise number of candidates.
18.3 Final selection and allocation of Organization/Office will be made on the
basis of the performance of candidates in Paper-I and Paper-II and the
preference of Organization/Office exercised by them.
18.4 The final allotment of posts are made on the basis of merit-cum-
preferences of Post(s)/Department(s) given by the candidates and once a
post is allotted, no change of posts will be made by the Commission due to
non-fulfillment of any post specific requirements of physical/medical/
educational standards or any other requirement. In other words, for
example, if a candidate has given higher preference for a post and is
selected for that post; in that case, if he/she fails to meet the
medical/physical/educational standards for that post, his/her
candidature will be rejected and he/she will not be considered for any
n

other posts.
tio
nc

18.5 SC, ST, OBC, EWS and PwBD candidates, who are selected on their own merit
Ju

without relaxed standards, will not be adjusted against the reserved share of
il
iv

vacancies. Such candidates will be accommodated against the

C

general/unreserved vacancies in the post as per their position in the overall

merit or vacancies earmarked for their category, whichever is advantageous
to them. The reserved vacancies will be filled up separately from amongst the
eligible SC, ST, OBC, EWS and PwBD candidates.
18.6 SC, ST, OBC, EWS and PwBD candidate who qualifies on the basis of
relaxed standards; viz., age limit, experience or qualifications, permitted
number of chances, extended zone of consideration, etc, irrespective of
his/her merit position, is to be counted against reserved vacancies and not
against un-reserved vacancies. Such candidates may also be
recommended at the relaxed standards to the extent of number of
vacancies reserved for them, to make up for the deficiency in the reserved
quota, irrespective of their rank in the order of merit. Insofar as cases of
Ex-Serviceman are concerned, deduction of the military service rendered
from the age of ex-servicemen is permissible against the reserved or
unreserved posts and such exemption will not be termed as relaxed
standards in regard to age. Similarly for PwBD candidates, relaxation of 10
years in upper age limit will not be termed as relaxed standards.
18.7 A person with b e n c h m a r k disability who is selected on his/her own
merit can be appointed against an unreserved vacancy provided the post is
identified suitable for persons with benchmark disability of relevant
category.

28

Government is satisfied after such enquiry as may be considered
necessary that the candidate is suitable in all respects for appointment to
the service/post.

all the eligibility conditions for admission to the examination. Their
admission at all stages of the examination will be purely provisional,

that they do not fulfill any of the eligibility conditions, their candidature for
the examination will be cancelled.

on probation for a period of two years and during the period of probation,
the candidates would be required to undergo such training or pass such

n
tio

nc

any reason, he/she must represent to the concerned Regional Office of the

from the Commission or the concerned User Organization/Office within a
period of one year from the declaration of final result, he/she must
communicate immediately thereafter with the concerned User Department /
Organization.
18.15 The final allotment of posts is made on the basis of merit-cum-preferences of
Posts/ Departments given by the candidates and once a post is allotted, no
change of posts will be made by the Commission due to non-fulfillment of any
post specific requirements of physical/ medical/ educational standards. In
other words, for example, if a candidate has given higher preference for a post
and is selected for that post; in that case, if he fails to meet the medical/
physical/ educational standards for that post, his candidature will be rejected
and he will not be considered for any other preferences and no
correspondence in this regard will be entertained by the Commission.
18.16 It is reiterated that the final result will be declared only once by the
Commission and no further nomination of candidates would be made in the
event of vacancies left unfilled due to non-availability of suitable candidates,
rejection of candidates during Document Verification by the User
organization, non-joining of candidates, or any other reason. In such cases, the
Ministry/Department/Organization may take further action regarding
carrying forward of vacancies to the next vacancy year in accordance with the

MEDICAL STANDARDS OF RECRUITMENTS FOR GREF

General

1 Every recruit must be sufficiently intelligent, free from nervous instability and be in
possession of sound health. He shall have no constitutional or acquired disability as may in the
opinion of Recruiting Medical Officer render him unfit for duties, in the organization, particularly at
high altitude and hard areas.

General examination

2 It is absolutely essential in all cases to have the recruits stripped while carrying out
medical examination. Due regard be paid to privacy and decency. It is not sufficient that the
clothing be only partially removed. An underwear may be permitted except when the examination
is being carried out involving private parts. Every part of the body must be examined and if a
recruit does not submit to this even after persuasion, he will be rejected. Permanent body tattoos
are only permitted on inner face of forearms i.e. from inside of elbow to the wrist and on the
reverse side of palm/back (dorsal) side of hand. However, in case of an obscene, vulgar or
objectionable tattoo, the DDG (Pers)/Comdt GREF Centre will take a final decision on
acceptability/unacceptability of such tattoo. The decision of the DDG (Pers)/ Comdt GREF
Centre in the matter shall be final. Permanent body tattoos on any other part of the body is not
n

Responsibility for physical fitness

C

3 The examining Medical Board is responsible for checking the physical fitness of the
recruits, the likelihood of their physical development and for their identification marks. The Board
will also enter on the enrolment form any minor defects insufficient to cause rejection. In the case
of fit recruits the Board will make the necessary entry on the enrolment form, the wording used
being Fit-category GREF-I and return it to the enrolling officer. The signature of the examining
Medical Officer on the enrolment form will be accepted as equivalent to a declaration that he has
personally examined the recruit in question according to the existing instructions and that the
recruit has no blemish or defect except those noted on the enrolment form. Remarks relating to
any defects in the recruit will be endorsed in the medical examiner’s own handwriting. When
there are no distinctive marks this must be stated.

made at the time of examination.

6 Marks and small defects are to be noted concisely and clearly in the space allotted for the
